FYI

I now post here

The Return?

So its been about three months since I put something up on this here area. Been way to focused with the Live Journal Spot that this has fallen by the wayside. Yeah that's it. So as type this I have the ac blastin keepin the room on the cool side. And now let the randomness begin. Back in May I posted a bit of a story called Overkill. Not sure if I’m going to put more installments here,still debating that. But in the mean time I’ll hit you off with something else. Check it out,tentatively titled The Beginning.


The brightness of the eastern sky chased away the darkness that seemed like it would never end. The first all clear siren was heard and the adult towns people came out to see who survived. From the screams and explosions some feared the worse. When they looked upon the once thriving community and bore witness to the carnage they realized it was only the beginning of their worries

Food Comments

Wish i had a good sized square pizza stone currently own a round one. Used it last Saturday night. Its good for the regular sized round pizza,but what about the square cookie sheet sized. Yeah baking in the cookie sheet on top of the pizza stone is ok, but I wanna get that contact of pizza and stone with nothing in between except for some corn meal. If I do get a square one what will i do to get the square pizza from the board onto the stone don’t want to go out and buy a larger pizza peel. Hmmm I think I may have solved that problem. I’ll just one of the newer cookie sheets that in picked u some time ago they look something like this notice the flat edge at one end. All I have to do is remember to put the corn meal on for easy slide off action

The Beginning continues..
The darkness returned once again. Some thought it was too soon. Then they came to the realization that the days were getting shorter. The warning alarms were sounded and everyone sought the shelter of their homes. Activating the shield barriers and other defenses hoping against all hope that the energy levels remain strong throughout the night.

So I live on the East side of Providence,the lower East Side the Mt Hope section I guess you could say. Not sure though we may be on the border and part of the summit or hope section of the city. We used to live on Camp Street for a long time then sista bought a house and we moved. So I was wondering how things were up there on Camp st. Passed through a few times saw a few things in the paper,but according to some the postings on this Blog things aren't going to well.

Hmmm I think I’ll end today's posting right here for now. Enjoy the weekend.
oops almost forgot here’s a video for your enjoyment.

Hey there, how ya doin? Long time no see. Yeah I’ve been travellin around the world yeah thats it a journey of discovery umm yeah right. Just wasn't up to maintaining this here blog for a while.Was posting more focused stuff on the Live Journal Spot,tweakin the MYspace joint and discovering something called mog. Maybe I’ll post the links maybe I wont.

Its a holiday today but the only difference I see here at the house is the presence of sista and the niece and nephew. Kinda warm also.Currently vybin to the sounds of Fabio on BBC Radio One Website.

Food Stuff
Then serve it over steamed rice and then you're done.Pretty tastey ain't it. Oh wait I've seemed to have forgotten something. Oh yeah. Take a few pounds of turkey sausage,do the whole wash and pat dry thingee. Then cut slits on both sides of the each link. Prepare a nice browning rub consisting of some italian seasoning,paprika,cayenne pepper,black pepper,granulated garlic,onion powder, and some other stuff...oh yeah flour. Mix all of that together and set aside.


Fiction
The last time I was posting here I was inserting segments of a story in between other items. Here's a piece of something I call Overkill.

Frank Fox just opened up the mic to greet his listeners for the first time when he looked out the window to the main drive that ends in front of the studio. A tractor trailer truck was heading straight towards him at an incredible speed. People who had they're radios tuned in at that moment expecting to hears Franks usual catch phrase heard Frank scream Holy Sh... a loud crash then nothing. Inside of the building the impact of the truck crashing through the wall threw the main mixing console and Frank into the opposite wall. If the crushed lungs Frank suffered from the board hitting didn't kill him the front end of the truck did.

More next time around

Was able to attach a grappling hook to an approaching Shinkasen....

Saturday Return!

Yeah it’s been a bit since I posted here. Was hanging out with those folks passing out the golden coconuts during mardi gras,then wandered throughout texas for a while and headed to North Dakota to prove a point that it does exist. Then stopped in Detroit and eventually eneded up back here in Rhode Island………yeah that’s the ticket.
Actually I have been doing more focused posting here. Then I realized that I still needed to post some vague ramblings and links to other stuff so I’m back.

From Previous post:

So Miles is this a company car because I don’t remember seeing this on the pamphlet? Um yeah you could say it’s a company car. With quite a few bells and whistles. Really like what asked Tricia? Well um I’m still trying to figure em out. Um Miles eyes on road mumbled a nervous Johanson as the barey missed an overturned palm tree. Whew that was a close one sighed Miles. Right everyone make sure you strapped in well ,looks like a bumpy ride from hear out. Wow pops I see your still king of the understatement. Thanks Kenneth

And now we continue

Bloody hell,the winds are picking up! I thinkwe’re almost at the turn off the for the house. Bought time dad said in stereo from the rear. Miles was relived when he spied the signpost or what was left of the signpost announcing their road. Wow look at those huge palm trees they almost fell on that house over there. Just as Tricia said that a tree fell on the road just barely missing the rear end of the rover with a loud crash. Miles cursed and said that was close. But Johanson noticed that the vehicle had picked up speed just as the tree was falling. Miles took a deep breath and glanced at his dashboard, a small display was lit up with the words collision avoided in glowing green letters.

Food Comments
Lets see what I have for ingredients,boneless chix breast,a gang of russet potatoes,and various types of frozen vegetables hmmm looks like I may make some chicken stew,with black eyed peas tossed in to help thicken it. What eles do we have in here…ohh whole garlic cloves…looks like it may be time to roast some garlic for mashed potatoes. Still got some vidalia onions left over,..I did notice a small piece of beef in the deep freezer. Maybe some type of oven roasted beef on a bed of onions may be in order. And with the left over boneless chicken breast I might do some crispy chicken tenders for the neice and nephew. Last week did some braised beef short ribs, and helped sista out with some baked chicken for an event that she was supplying the food for,man that’s was a lot of chicken.

Hmmm Miles muttered as he pulled into the entrance of the driveway and stopped near the entrance to the house.
Something wrong dear? Tricia asked. Um no just happy that we made it here in one piece. Ok everyone out. Tricia
and the kids grabbed their bags from the boot while Johanson hung back. Miles, Tricia yelled, I need the keys to unlock the front door. Miles fumbled through his pockets in search of the house keys, until Johanson whispered to Miles…..

Mid Week Muddle Through

From Previous post

Tap tap tap…Miles unlock the doors. Ok gimme a sec. Where’s the door lock c doors unlocked reconfiguring vehicle to manual mode What? Oh wait hey! As Miles was protesting the heads up display dissappeared, and an ignition slot with key intact appeared on the right side of the steering column,the windows reverted to tinted mode just as Johanson opened the rear hatch to load the luggage in. Tricia jumped in to the passenger seat as the kids,Rachel 12 and Kenneth 14 jumped in the rear with Johanson.

And now we continue

Hey hun glad you could make it on time. Tricia said as she put on her seatbelt. Miles is everything ok you seem a bit out of sorts.
Um right ok everybody strapped in? Lets get going. Ok Rover or whatever you are lets get a move on and get outta here. Miles spoke out and nothing happened. Miles are you Ok? Tricia you won’t believe this.
Um Miles maybe we can discuss what you were about to mention once we get to the house. Johanson commented from the back seat,plus the kids are tired. Oh right. Miles turned the key and put the Rover into gear and began the journey back .

Take a couple of onions and chop em,then set them aside.The grab a couple of heads of green cabbage about 4 lbs or so and chop up mthe rinse well in water. Now you are almost ready.

Wow L Double is rocking a dub of Anthony B A Jah World ala drum & bass style into A Sun Is Shining dub in the same vein. Gotta love those D&B djs from across the pond. But hey I digress.

Grab some chicken or vegetable stock, some vegetable oil, a couple of those dry peppers (chipoltle),minced garlic,kosher salt,black pepper,and maybe some sweet paprika. Pour the oil into the pot,and heat it on a medium high flame. Add onions and cook until carmelized,then add the peppers,and garlic and continue cooking.

So miles is this a company car because I don’t remember seeing this on the pamphlet? Um yeah you could say it’s a company car. With quite a few bells and whistles. Really like what asked Tricia?

Back from a lil jaunt to the land of the rising sun.......yeah right actually I posted elsewhere about my time away from this blog and everything else.

From previous post:

Mr. MacBride you may now open your eyes, we have made it pass the downed power cables unscathed Downed power cables!? Where the hell are we? Approximately 5 minutes away from Sinjin Municipal Airport 5 minutes you said it would take us an hour its only been 20 minutes. Mr. MacBride you requested speed and I fulfilled that request Um yeah right. When I adjusted the speed, you lost consciousness Um no I was just resting my eyes.

Destination reached, Sinjin Municipal Airport western arrival gates Well thanks um uh, the hell do I call you. My current designation is… breep breep breep incoming call from Mr. Johanson Miles where are you?
I am outside the western arrival gates of the airport.
Right we’re on our way out.
Ok..click

So my niece did her own thing this past Saturday and prepared the dinner. Her menu was two kinds of boneless chicken tenders, tossed green salad,potatoe salad, and green beans. Came out pretty good if I must say so. For Sunday since it was hella cold out there I put together a good sized pot of Chicken Stew with potatoes,onions,carrots,celery,black eyed peas,roasted garlic and much more. Sister hooked up some smothered greens (collards,turnip,and kale) with smoked turkey drumsticks for extra flavor. My nieced handled the desert duties, she made a strawberry short cake with whipped cream, and I think she did a special starwberry sauce or something like that. Later on this week looks like some smothered cabbage may be on the menu,plus catfish and whatever else comes to mind.

Tap tap tap…Miles unlock the doors. Ok gimme a sec. Where’s the door lock c doors unlocked reconfiguring vehicle to manual mode What? Oh wait hey! As Miles was protesting the heads up display dissappeared, and an ignition slot with key intact appeared on the right side of the steering column,the windows reverted to tinted mode just as Johanson opened the rear hatch to load the luggage in.

Speaking of across the pond here’s a nice article in regards to failed efforts at voterregistration.

And what about over here and the Voting Rights Act? Hmm heres an article by way of [NorthJersey.com]

I know the whole idea of creating a place closed off to cars and open to pedestrians only sounds weak, espicially in this car focused culture, some will answer that’s what side walks are for. But what if there was such a place,maybe in a major city. I remember when a major part of my downtown area was like that,no vehicle traffic allowed. But that changed over the years after store owners complained. Read this piece by way of [Alternet.org].

So Mr Johanson, you still didn’t explain why you are here. I thought the company gave Miles some time off to spend it with his family.
We did give him time off Tricia, um its kind um uhh a…….working vaction.
You ruddy bastards and when was he going to tell us?!
Well actually this is going to be news to him also.

After a quick brine,rinse and pat dry the split chicken breasts. Grab the rest of your ingredients,fresh rosemary,minced garlic, Mrs. Dash, seasoning, granulated garlic, onion powder, cayene pepper, a dash of kosher salt and some extra virgin olive oil. Now you are ready. Hmmm maybe you may want to omit the pepper. That’s better. Wow some type of of roasted chicken dish on a Friday night instead of fish…hmmm well its not Lent yet. So far the weekend menu looks interesting. Sista mentioned something about doing a pot of turkey chili, Saturday not sure whats up with Sunday. I know I’ll be tired from the shoveling so it will have to be a mindless type of meal.

Mr. MacBride you may now open your eyes, we have made it pass the downed power cables unscathed Downed power cables!? Where the hell are we?

Mr. MacBride you requested speed and I fulfilled that request Um yeah right. When I adjusted the speed you lost consciousness Um no I was just resting my eyes.

Pre heat your oven to 350 or 325 if you aint in a rush. Grab a pan and coat it with some veg oil or some non stick spray. I used a glass pryrex thingee. Season ya split chix breast well. If you feel up to it, mix all of your dry ingredients together, then rub all over the chicken. Take the fresh rosemary and sprinkle over the chicken. Then drizzle some of that extra virgin olive oil over the chicken then place in the oven. If your bad at drizzlin like I am you may want to do what I did and invest in a olive oil sprayer.

Current weather conditions have been taken into consideration. Adjusting vechicles exterior integrity to compensate for flying debri What the..as Macbride was about to finsh his sentence with a few choice words he noticed that all of the windows darkened. Well he thought that they had darkened. Upon closer inspection there seemed to be some type of portective plating sliding up from the doors and the windshields.

Mmmmmmm , smell that. Yeah that’s the garlic. So Sundays menu was kind of basic as I mentioned before roasted shoulder lamb chops smothered in sweet red peppers and onions with fresh rosemary. The kids were commenting on how good the kitchen smelled before I even popped the stuff in the oven. Had to be all those red peppers,onions,and smashed garluc cloves. Of course there were some other seasonings popped in. Some cummin. Yeah definitely getting a taste for that. But not usuing to much a little goes a long way unless your making chili. For vegggeis did some sauteed spiniach with some grated nutmeg,minced onions,minced galic,white pepper. Before I added the spinach I sauteed some chipotle peppers (gotta use em up) in with the onions. Tooke em out then added the spinach. Also roasted some carrots w a bit of kosher salt, pepper, balsamic vinegar, and extra virgin olive oil.

Mid Week Mambo-2

Was bored the other day so I decided to do some demolition work.

From previous post:

Miles just get out to that garage,insert your badge into the slot and make use of the equipment inside,we’re waiting for you. They want to close down the airport and they say that this building will not be safe to ride out the storm.
Ok Johanson so much for time away from the day job. I can’t believe this, where there hell is that garage,can barely see my a few meters in front of me with this wind and rain. Ummph! I didn’t even notice this thing on the way in, large as hell.

Ok there’s the bloody slot by the doorway,but how the hell will the door open with no power,considereing that was the first thing to go because of the storm breep breep breep… hello?
Just put your badge in the slot Miles
But the powers out in the whole blinkin area Johanson
Put your badge in the slot and step back.!
Whatever you say…inserting my badge.

Forgot mention that fresh thyme was also used in the braised turkey drumsticks dish.

Was thinking of doing a pork dish, even though I don’t eat the swine anymore I figured the rest of the fam would go for it. My brother pointed out an Asian inspired recipe for pork roast in a magazine he was reading at the hospital. Hmmm but I was thinking back to when I was much younger…whenever we would have roast pork shoulder we would also have applesauce with it. So I was thinking of maybe doing a pork loin w some type of apple chutney or maybe do some roasted cortland apple chunks, drizzled with a spicy honey glaze.

Jeesus Johanson the blinkin door just slid up into the ceiling…and wait a second some green lights are coming on in this hallway kind of like a lighted path or something.

Well Tricia I have bit of a problem here I have no transport and…. Miles Johanson here-you need to get out to that garage structure and make sure you have your ID badge its in the left pocket of your carry on.

Tossed in some chipoltle peppers for some extra flavor, love that smokiness. Sista did up a good sized pot of chicken soup.

Mr Johanson on the other end patiently tells charles to attempt to make it to the concrete garage structure towards the back of the property after the storm moves throgh. Most of his questions will be answered once he gets through the door.

Well gee thanks Johanson I suppose I would do that but theres’s this little problem of high wind gusts and random pieces of debris that may cause me some bodily harm.Why didn’t corporate mention this detail, its almost starting to sound like a working vacation. Next thing your going to tell me that you aint flyingg out my family. Johanson, hello Johanson…bullocks!

Ingredients: beef chuck cut into chunks,8 or 9 cloves of garlic (yeah I like garlic), some celery stalks,carrots ,potatoes,onions,parsnips (oh damn over budget…no parsnips),leftover green onions from yesterdays stir fry,tomatoe paste,organic beef broth,a bit of kosher salt,mesquite grill seasoning,some flour,granulated garlic,a dash o allspice.

As the wind whipped through the trees Charles watched heplessly as his custom made doggy igloo was tossed into the nearby marsh. Damn what a way to start a vacation he grumbled…

Take about two or three pounds of sweet (couldn’t find any hot) italian style turkey sausage, about six onions sliced thin,four large red peppers sliced into strips,six to seven maybe eight whole cloves of garlic (smash em a bit to release some flavor),italian seasoning,some flour,granulated garlic,vegetable oil, chicken broth or chicken stock two thin sliced potatoes, and some fresh basil, (both of those items I forgot) and a large casserole dish with a cover,lid or something like that. Now you are ready.

Charles stayed out on the deck and held on to the railing, the nearby trees were offereing some wind shelter but he realized that those weren’t going to last. He went inside to call the main office only to find that the phone lines were dead. He went to plan B and dug into his duffel bag for his satellite phone. Luckily he was able to get that through customs after a lengthy discussion with airport officials. He checked the charge and stepped outside into the storm to make a phone call.

If you haven heard yet Fearless Leader has had is day(s) and court and the outcome is as follows,he was fined $2500 which is payable over five years? And his lawyer fees are $7500..wooo hoo.

After getting the correct signal Charles contacts the home office and screams into the phone. How could you book my vacay to this spot during monsoon season. Bloody hell it looks like the main road is already washed out and I’m watching bits of this rental blow away.

Mr Johanson on the other end patiently tells charles to attempt to make it to the concrete garage structure towards the back of the property after the storm moves throgh. Most of his questions will be answered once he gets through the door.

LongWeekend

If you look closely you can see my hands sticking up from within the tree branches.

It’s the end of a long weekend, as went from wetness to windyness to whiteness(snow showers people) to a bone chillin hawk, remember that we have until March 20 for it to end. Well that is the first day of Spring but that hasn’t stopped mother nature from throwing some after season snowballs in the past.

Just stumbled across a dust covered Sister Nancy CD entitled One Two on the Techniques label circa 1999. She has some tune called Bam Bam, I wonder if it’s a Flinstones theme song off shoot. Well I’ll have to crack the shrink wrap to see if its Flinstones tune or not. I’ll let ya know whats up next week. Currently on repeat/alarm clock duty Simply Good Music Volume two. Looking forward to Volume Three. Right now I just listented to The Devil Is Sweet from Ayatollahs Upcoming release entitled Now Playing. Kind of haunting in its own way. Would you like to listen to it? Hmmm ok here’s the link by way of [Nature-Sounds.Net].

Todays clip is an old commercial

Next Trail

Currently making good use of the high speed connection to listen to some tunes, check out a few streams etc. Was listening to Morning Edition from NPR by way of WGBH the Boston affiliate. There’s a Rhode Island affiliate but I was feelin Bostons presentation. Right about now I listening to Ray Keith filling in for DJ Hype on Kiss100.com.

Hmm lets see, a couple of pounds of ground beef, a couple of chopped onions, some elbow macaroni,tomato paste,sauce,italian seasoning, crushed red pepper flakes,minced garlic,and a bit of salt. Brown your beef and add the seasonings,while ya beef is browning get two pots out one for the sauce and a larger one for the pasta. Sautee the onions in the sauce pot and fill the pasta pot with water accoring to the amount listed on the side of the box. Once your onions are almost carmelized add the sauce and tomato paste,stir well and check ya beef.


While perusing the many channels being offered on cable I decided to make an attempt to re immerse myself in my culture figured I would peep whats on BET especially after reading this article from the times,then this article from Amercan Thinker and this article by way of [The Bible Of Hip Hop Blog]. But then I realised that really wouldn’t get that much culture, I would get entertainment. That’s what their title says,it doesn’t say education,enlightenment,or engrossing, it says entertainment and that’s what you’re going to get. At one time they might have been right on target if there ever was a target but not now. Maybe they’re going with where the money is. They are on a different level than the people at Black Family Network.

I remember folks coming into the spot looking for Holy Hip Hop. Fearless leader wouldn’t stock because he claimed it didn’t sell. I guess he was only paying attention to those mx cd’s. who knows maybe he’s gotten a bit smarter considering how things are. But I wouln’t hold my breath. Here’s a piece from the [Dallas Observer] about a ministers attempt to keep Hip Hop outta the church. Read it here.

Currently checking out a stream from the Soulheaven website. I think its from the Soul Heaven Presents Blaze release that came out last year. Good stuff there in that collection. Also about to check out a tune from Koushik fear Percee P entitled Cold Beats (cold heat megamix) courtesy of Stones Throw records.

Take a deep breath ,smell that. Well of course you can’t but if you was in my house today, yall would’ve caught the aroma of of some beef ribs covered w a st louis style of dry rub seasoning slowly cooking in the oven. Have to go through all of that all in one seasoning stuff so I can start making it fresh and without the salt. Finishing off the ribs with some.......bbq sauce. Earlier this week (Sunday) did a Chicken stew w carrots,celery,onion,some ,corn,lima beeans,green beans,peas,red peppers,a bit of pasta shells,and various seasonings,like minced garlic,a lil bit of cummin,pepper,some Mrs dash etc… I know i should've dumped in some of the leftover black eyed peas but completely zoned out for a bit. Oh well

What else is going on? Not to much set up the stake out for the current case and oh umm oops. I mean I was just wandering around looking at nothing in particular yeah that’s it.
